how do you start compiz with the 1.0-9629 nvidia driver you do not need
aiglx
i start compiz with /usr/bin/compiz   --use-cow --replace gconf
i do not know exacty what  --strict-bindings --*indirect*-rendering do :-(
   but i think it is for aiglx
   my problem is with direct nvidia rendering i get black windows after a
short
   time
   is this a nvidia bug ? i read about in the nvidia linux forum



As stated in topic. Maybe I have misconfigured something, because cpu
usage sometimes rises to as much as 40%. I am running git compiz, fedora
 core 6, nvidia fx5700 with 128 MB vram using 1.0-9629 driver and a
pentium 4
3.0E prescott cpu. Isn't compiz supposed to be
hardware-accelerated, and thus not hogging the cpu so much? Thanks for
the response in advance.
